Mushroom Fried Rice

Ingredients

• 5 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)
• 3 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 tablespoons oil (divided in half)
• 1 pound sliced mushrooms (baby bellas or an assortment of mushrooms)
• 1 teaspoon salt (divided in half)
• 1 small onion (diced)
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 4 cups cold cooked rice
• 1 cup frozen peas
• green onion (optional garnish)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Set aside.

2. 2

   Add 1 tablespoon of oil to a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add mushrooms and sauté until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add salt and saute for another minute. Set side the mushrooms. Do this step in two batches if needed. They get golden quicker if they’re in a single layer.

3. 3

   In the same skillet, add the rest of the oil and onions. Saute for 2 to 3 minutes before adding the garlic. Saute for another minute.

4. 4

   Add the chilled rice, mushrooms, and sauce to the skillet.

5. 5

   Cook through the rice, gently tossing it, making sure to break up any clumps in the rice, so they’re all evenly coated with the sauce. Cook for two to three minutes or until the rice is hot.

6. 6

   Add the frozen peas and toss to combine. Serve as is or garnish with green onions.
